FULL TITLE: Boy Scouts of America will officially welcome gay members on New Year's Day as they grapple with questions about group showers and tentmates

The Boy Scouts of America will accept openly gay youths starting New Year's Day, marking a historic shift that spells major changes to policies on tentmates and showers.

Yet despite their be-prepared approach, BSA leaders are rooting for the change to be a non-event, comparable to another New Year's Day in 2000 when widespread fears of digital-clock chaos to start the new millennium proved unfounded.

‘My hope is there will be the same effect this Jan. 1 as the Y2K scare,’ said Brad Haddock, a BSA national executive board member who chairs the policy implementation committee. ‘It's business as usual, nothing happens and we move forward.’

The lawsuits from:

Gays Scouts having/attempting to have sex with other scouts.

No scouts wanting to be in the “same tent” as a Gay Scout.

Male Scout leaders and gay scouts who are above the age of consent (16).

The first gay Eagle Scout who turns 18 and then demands to become an assistant Scout Master.

Will END the Boy Scouts.

Admitting impressionable young boys who think...or are convinced by others...that they're “gay”? What could *possibly* go wrong?

Any father that allows his son (or worse, encourages him) to join or continue with the Boy Scouts is an unfit father. Akin to accessory to child molestation, the way I see it.

Dated a couple of Eagle Scouts through the years. One of which, in our small town (and has a family), is head of the local BSA. I’ve spoken to him about this and he said they’re considering folding due to the (not my words, his)....”p*ssyfication of the Boy Scouts”. He is worried for his son and the bad influence. Can’t blame him at all. He and his wife (and we a friends) are good folks. Just trying to raise their family as best they can given this effed up society we have to compete with.

as always, the big leaders of BSA who make nice salaries and benefits are just kowtowing to TPTB and going along to get along....

I can't imagine a young boy, age 7 or 8 knowing he's gay or otherwise....

but we do know that when they get to be 14 or 15 they may have an inkling...

would I really want that kid romping around with my kid?...no...

and we do know that adult homosexuals often seek positions of power over young boys and teens....

time for the whole thing to end I guess....

OK boys, it will be most important to understand, when the patrol leader says “fall in behind”, you should all practice situational awareness and constantly scan to the front and rear.

As Scott Lively has said, this was the last American institution to fall to the gaystapo agenda, the first having been the American Psychiatric Association.
Start with the nerds, end with the children.

I hope no Freeper still has kids in this organization, which has clearly taken on a political predatory nature. I don’t do business with them or the girl scouts ever, on principle alone.

seriously, why does there have to be a "national" organization....why can't there be church groups....open only to church members of good standing.....a very loose organization with little more than a notepad of names...

have the fathers plan camping outings, and skill fairs just between their friends and their sons....
